I know it's only a prototype but it looks pretty goofy to me. With all those hinges and hardware at least I know there's gonna be a damper on there! ?

The blue oval brand has filed a patent on a new pickup tailgate that would help it compete with the latest multifunction units from GM and Ram.
The design, which was first reported by CarBuzz, incorporates a side-hinged door in the center of the tailgate that offers close access to the bed, but can also be folded down to open in the traditional fashion.
The idea is similar to Ram's Multifunction tailgate, which can open like barn doors along a 60/40 split.
